The only reason Russia is our enemy now is that NATO decided that Russia was still our enemy and acted accordingly.

Quite frankly between the multiculturalist anti-Christian secularizing bureaucrats in Brussels whose main concern seems to be the health of the European banking industry and a resurgence of the traditional Russian cooperation between the state and the Orthodox Church, I’m going to side with the latter.

At some point in the near future, the thing that will matter most is that America and Russia are both Christian nations. Unless Western Europe has a revival, they won’t be much help.

BS, Russia has been preparing for war for a long time and has never ceased their subversive active measures against the West. NATO, if anything, has drawn down and gotten even weaker, while Russia gets Nuclear treaties that force the United States to downsize while the Russians continue to build their own nuclear forces up to parity. The anti-Nuke/NATO crowd is and always has been KGB/FSB inspired.

and a resurgence of the traditional Russian cooperation between the state and the Orthodox Church, I’m going to side with the latter.

Because you are horribly uninformed. The ROC in Russia and abroad persecutes Protestants and Catholics, including murdering them in East Ukraine and Crimea. Only 7 percent of Russians even bother to show up to church just once a month, and when they do, they're the type to march around with Joseph Stalin icons:

You do not know what Russia is, and you side with our mortal enemy as a result, apologizing for their aggression by blaming the West.

IMHO, that is partially correct. There's a whole list of reasons why Russia is our enemy (although I prefer the word "opponent" as of now).

And most certainly "NATO provocations" is on that list. But one must be careful with the word "provocation". What one side sees as a reasonable action, another side might see as a deliberate provocation.

It is foolish to ignore what Russia might see as a provocation. I'm not saying that the West should always avoid upsetting Russia! What I am saying is that nations have pride, and it would be wise to take that into account.

But it is also wrong to blame all of Russia's actions on NATO "provocations". As I said before, the list that explains Russia's actions is long, and only history will judge just where NATO is on that list.

That's the base strategy, all this is anti Christian, the new Progressive West, New World Order, and the Western IMF-reserve currency system to fund and profit from it.
